"I don't like nonsense, Rebecca."
Sitting on the stone bench, Ron re-lit the cigar and exhaled white smoke: "Tell me everything you know."
"Don't think!"
Rebecca's voice seemed to be a little snoring, his head facing the ground, causing a mouthful of grit.
"呸 ... 呸!"
He turned his head hard, revealing his face, his red eyes fixed on Ron, his teeth sharp like beasts.
With the wrinkled, dry skinny old face, like a dry corpse crawling out of hell, fierce, terrifying.
"Ignorant mortal! You have no idea what's inside!"
"When my Lord comes, you heretics will confess your sins in the Styx!"
"Oh……"
Rebecca's swearing swears, and Ron's careless response. The latter turned back and asked.
"Is Rebecque a believer?"
"This ... sorry Lord."
The captain of the excavation team thought for a moment and shook his head: "Although Mr. Rebek has settled in Alabastan for more than ten years, he has only rarely shown his studies, so we locals know little about him."
Seeing Ron's disappointed eyes, the captain immediately added.
"But I know some clues that should be related to how he became like this."
"Oh? Come and listen."
Ron regained his spirits and stepped on Reebeck's head with a different foot, signalling the captain to continue.
"Yes! That's it ..."
The captain began to tell.
Mysterious stories will always be in the deserted areas.
Its hard to conquer has created the legend that there are as many stars in the desert. Even the Neferutari family who has ruled here for hundreds of years dare not say that they know every sand dune.
The captain's story is a legend about the desert styx.
It is said that there is a Styx River underground in the desert. The soul of a dead person will sink into the sand sea, cross the Styx River, and go to the kingdom of the undead.
Hundreds of years ago, a small town was eroded by yellow sand. A large number of livestock were drowned by the yellow sand. The water wells dried up and the people could not live.
Looking at the withered town, the town mayor decided to move and lead everyone to find a new home.
Such things are common in the desert kingdom of Alabastan.
Even now it happens.
Because the desert is not always static.
Like the sea, it has ebbs and flows.
The closer to the no-man's land, the more unpredictable the environment there is.
When Huangsha began to devour living space, migration became the only hope for people to survive.
However, I do n’t know if it ’s bad luck or something else. The town mayor led the residents for ten days, and no oasis recorded on the map was seen.
On this day, the water was in a hurry, and the weak elderly and children were breathless. Facing the eyes of residents asking for help, the mayor was very pained.
At night, everyone gathered to rest, suddenly someone exclaimed.
"It's a river! There is water!"
"It's a big river, we have a rescue!"
Wow ...!
At the same time, the sound of the rushing water was awakening, waking up the men, women and children in the camp.
The mayor rushed to the dunes and looked at the black python that was tumbling in front of him, losing his language ability.
He didn't understand why a river suddenly appeared here. Their location was not many kilometers from the coast. Even the seawater could not flow here, and they would be engulfed by the desert halfway.
But this does not hinder the joy in everyone's heart, one after another, holding watering utensils, running towards the river to fetch water.
This night, we rarely sleep well.
When the next day, the mayor immediately got up and ran to the sand dunes, looking at the still existing river. He was ecstatic and announced that he would build a new home here.
No matter how the river appears, living in the desert depends on water, and no living thing can survive without water.
Now that there is a freshwater river beside him, the fool will change places.
Reconstruction is proceeding smoothly. With the water source, there is vitality. Watching the dying residents slowly recover, the cattle were energetic, and the mayor was relieved.
but.
The good times don't last long.
On that day, someone got up and found that the blood vessels under their skin became very dark. The black paint penetrated the skin like ink, and was shocked, so they went to the doctor for treatment.
However, the doctor did not have much to do about it. After asking some questions to make sure that he was not abnormal, he reported the matter to the mayor.
Faced with this strange disease, everyone was at a loss.
Fortunately, the strange disease just changed the color of the blood and did not have a bad effect on the body, and everyone gradually relaxed their minds.
Until one day ...
At night, the mayor had just fallen asleep, and suddenly heard a roar that sounded like a human outside. The town suddenly fell into chaos, with screams and weird "嗤 ~ 嗤 ~" sounds everywhere.
When the mayor went out for a look, he discovered that a group of dark monsters were hunting down the residents.
They have a human-like upright posture, but their eyes are red, their bodies are covered with a thick black liquid, and their palms become sharpened.
After desperately trying to kill a monster, the mayor found in horror that when the mucus faded away, it turned out to be a normal human body!
And he knew him.
It's the blacksmith in the town!
The sword that hacked the "monster" was from the hand of the blacksmith.
Monsters are people becoming!
This stone-shattering news made everyone unexpected, everyone was suspicious of guarding each other, for fear that the companions around them would become those terrible monsters in the next moment.
No one knows what happened next in the town.
In the end, only a few survivors escaped from the birth and brought the news out, making the desert a legend about the Styx River.
"I've heard this story too!"
A young guy in the excavation team raised his hand and said, "My mother used this story to coax me to sleep as a kid, telling me that those people actually died early. The reason why they didn't find the oasis was because they were in the kingdom of the undead.
Ron: "..."
Your mother is really talented!
Isn't this a horror story?
However, this deliberately also has a moral meaning, warning people that although the water in the desert is important ~ EbookFREE.me ~, you can't drink it at will.
The residents of the town in the story turned into monsters, obviously because they drank the water from the sudden emergence of the large river.
This is also a very important enlightenment education for young children.
"Yes, Styx!"
At this time, Rebecca suddenly raised his head in admiration: "The great Lord of the Styx, the master of the undead kingdom! Please show your might and take these blasphemer away!"
"..."
There was silence all around, only the sound of breathing from everyone, echoing in the quiet underground space.
After a few seconds ...
Boom!
The violent shock frightened everyone, and the workers looked back, looking at Rebec, who was stepped on the ground again by Ron, and his mouth twitched wildly.
Uh……
Almost forgot it again, now the scariest guy here is Ron the "Canglong"! !! !!
"The Lord of the Styx!"
"If it's so great and the world government fart ?!"
"You have the temper to rule the world, idiot!"
Ron spit out white smoke disdainfully, stomped on Rebecke's head and blocked his mouth completely.
All invisible gods are paper tigers!
The "lord of the Styx" in Rebek's mouth has at most a special ability to turn people into monsters, maybe some strange parasitic virus.
And more than the legendary "God", Ron believes in his fists more.
If there is any Lord of the Styx, Ron wants to play with him to see if his strength after awakening really stands at the top of the world.
Hearing Ron's speech, the mining team was dumb.
Ok.
Looks like ... that's the truth.
There are a lot of legends that this world is alive, how can you have a half dime relationship with the Lord of the Styx?
